Abstract:

High population as well as the economical tension emphasises the necessity of effective city management – from land use planning to urban green maintenance. The management effectiveness is based on precise knowledge of the city environment. Point clouds generated by mobile and terrestrial laser scanners provide precise data about objects in the scanner vicinity. From these data pieces the state of the roads, buildings, trees and other objects important for this decision-making process can be obtained. Generally, they can support the idea of “smart” or at least “smarter” cities.Unfortunately th

The California State University, Northridge (CSUN) Oviatt Library was the first library in the world to integrate an automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) into its operations. The AS/RS continues to provide efficient space management for the library. However, added value has been identified in materials security and inventory as well as customer service. The concept of library as space, paired with improved services and efficiencies, has resulted in the AS/RS becoming a critical component of library operations and future strategy.

Abstract:

A Personal Health Record (PHR) is an electronic record of a patient’s health-related information that is managed by the patient. The patient can give access to other parties, such as healthcare providers and family members, as they see fit. These parties can use the information in emergency situations, in order to help improve the patient’s healthcare. PHRs have an important role to play in ensuring that a patient’s complete health history is available to his healthcare providers at the point of care. This is especially true in South Africa, where the majority of healthcare organizations still

Doctors can experience difficulty in accessing medical information of new patients. One reason for this is that the management of medical records is mostly institution-centred. The lack of access to medical information may negatively affect patients in several ways. These include new medical tests that may need to be carried out at a cost to the patient and doctors prescribing drugs to which the patient is allergic. This research investigates how patients can play an active role in sharing their personal health records (PHRs) with doctors located in geographically separate areas. In order to a

Abstract:

This chapter examines the shift from the industrial age to the current “information age” by looking closely at the history of the electronic information industry since the 1970s, with special focus on key individuals and companies. Early pioneers developed remotely accessible database search systems and marketed them commercially. The advent of high-capacity storage media and personal computers in the 1980s made it possible for individual consumers to use databases, and in the 1990s, networking capabilities further supported the emergence of the Internet. Web portals developed, and a handful of companies successfully commoditized Web content. The 2000s were dominated by a move from general search engines to value-added “apps,” as well as by social networking, multimedia technology, and mobile consumer electronics. Throughout, the chapter highlights commonalities among the successful companies that have contributed to the strong and rapid growth of the industry as a whole.

Abstract:

The proliferation of huge amount of information has made it essential to develop systems that organize and index them for easy access. The advent of World Wide Web has provided immense opportunity to the people across the world to access and share information for different uses ranging from personal to professional. Various web mining techniques are applied to retrieve useful information as well as improvement of existing techniques of mining to search and retrieve useful information from the web. With the growth in the number of devices producing various forms of information, the amount of information is increasing exponentially. Also, these huge amount of information are being shared in the world through various means. Hence, it has become necessary to organize information in such a manner so that access to them is easy and feasible. As the amount of information is increasing rapidly, efficient indexing of information for easy access is becoming quite challenging. Hence, there is a need to search for solutions to solve this problem. The field of information retrieval attempts to solve this problem. Information retrieval is concerned with storage, organization, indexing, and retrieval of information. Information retrieval techniques incorporate several aspects of information to achieve the target of efficient indexing. Since there are several forms of information, their characteristics vary a lot from each other. Image is one such popular form of information which is shared the most among the people around the world. Also, with the presence of numerous image capturing devices, acquisition of image is no longer a difficult task. People enjoy capturing and sharing images through social network. Although image is a complex structure, it is easily understood by people across the world. Also, it has become a popular means of information sharing among people. This chapter discusses information retrieval techniques for image data. Visual Information Retrieval or Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) accepts query in the form of image or image features instead of text. It is concerned with searching and retrieval of images similar to the query given in the form of images. Most of the visual information retrieval techniques are based on processing single resolution of an image. But processing of single resolution of image is not sufficient for efficient retrieval as image is a complex structure and contains varying level of details. Hence, there is a need of multiresolution processing of images. Today, it is very difficult to keep track of number of research papers based on multiresolution analysis as it is widely used for various image-based applications. Also, there are a number of multiresolution techniques available to achieve this. Multiresolution processing has one big advantage that features that are left undetected at one level get detected at another level which is not the case with single resolution analysis. We demonstrate this fact with the help of an experiment using Discrete Wavelet Transform along with the discussion of various multiresolution techniques for visual information retrieval. The experiment helps in explaining the important properties of multiresolution analysis and also provides future scope of research in this field.

Abstract:

The chapter reveals new opportunities for the use of digital video surveillance in the agro-industrial sector. It presents a methodological approach and practical guidelines for modeling and managing changes in agrotechnology, in the conditions of digital transformation of large amounts of data. The proposed technical solutions are aimed at creating better products and gaining competitive advantages, thanks to the improved relationship of specialists and the transition to predictive data analysis. Video surveillance as the most accessible way to obtain information involves the creation of large amounts of data, their long-term storage, fast retrieval, and diverse analysis. The possibilities of video surveillance systems widely used to ensure the safety of industrial buildings and the protection of areas equipped with automatic video analytics modules and integrated computer programs are considered. The organization of managing geographically-distributed agricultural production using mobile and remote video surveillance systems is shown. By using the proposed project of integrating digital video surveillance into a big data system, the organization can be transformed to improve strategy, make system decisions, improve marketing and sales results, improve efficiency and productivity of business processes, improve the performance of production personnel, minimize unprofitable risks, and maximize management efficiency, which will lead to the emergence of new opportunities.

Abstract:

In this book chapter, the authors discuss two important trends in modern software engineering (SE) regarding the utilization of knowledge management (KM) and information retrieval (IR). Software engineering is a discipline in which knowledge and experience, acquired in the course of many years, play a fundamental role. For software development organizations, the main assets are not manufacturing plants, buildings, and machines, but the knowledge held by their employees. Software engineering has long recognized the need for managing knowledge and that the SE community could learn much from the KM community. The authors introduce the fundamental concepts of KM theory and practice and mainly discuss the aspects of knowledge management that are valuable to software development organizations and how a KM system for such an organization can be implemented. In addition to knowledge management, information retrieval (IR) also plays a crucial role in SE. IR is a study of how to efficiently and effectively retrieve a required piece of information from a large corpus of storage entities such as documents. As software development organizations grow larger and have to deal with larger numbers (probably millions) of documents of various types, IR becomes an essential tool for retrieving any piece of information that a software developer wants within a short time. IR can be used both as a general-purpose tool to improve the productivity of developers or as an enabler tool to facilitate a KM system.

Abstract:

A key component of land administration is the management of land and property related data. Such data may be held in manual or digital form although, increasingly, all land related records are being computerized for ease of storage and retrieval. Data are raw collections of facts that, from a land administration perspective, may be gathered and written down as numbers and text, for instance in a surveyor’s field book, or collected and stored digitally through the use of ‘data loggers’ and computers. They may also be held graphically as on maps or aerial photographs. Data become information when processed into a form meaningful to a decision-maker. The usefulness of this information will depend upon the quality of the data and especially on the extent to which they are up to date, accurate, complete, comprehensive, understandable, and accessible. Even then, good data do not necessarily produce good management decisions since other factors may be involved, such as the qualities of the data user; the converse is however true, namely that poor quality data will almost certainly result in bad decision-making. Land and property related data are increasingly managed within formal land information systems (LIS). As with all information systems, LIS use a combination of human and technical resources, together with a set of organizing procedures, to produce information in support of management activities (Dale and McLaughlin 1988). Increasingly, the technologies that drive the data processing are components of geographic information systems (GIS). There has been much debate about the nature of GIS, some seeing them as sets of hardware, software, and data while others have seen them as all-embracing institutional arrangements of which the technology is only part. In the following discussion, GIS will be treated as the former and restricted to the acquisition and assembly of spatial data; their processing, storage, and maintenance; and their retrieval, analysis, and dissemination. By analogy with the motor car, GIS are the engines that power the car and data are the fuel; operating a transportation system is, however, a more complex process.

Abstract:

The use of technology within human resource management has grown considerably over the last decade with the majority of organizations now using some form of HR information system (HRIS). For instance, in Europe, Watson-Wyatt (2002) found that 70% of the organizations surveyed used the Internet or Intranet to deliver HR services to employees with most respondents planning to enhance substantially their e-HR capabilities over the two years after the survey. In the UK alone, survey research by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development in 2005 showed that 77% of organizations used an HRIS. Research from Cranfield School of Management in 2003 found an even higher proportion of companies using HRIS at 82%. An HRIS can perform a number of functions from the simple storage and communication of information, to more complex transactions. As technology advances, the range of functions that an HRIS can undertake increases. The use of HRIS can provide a number of benefits to the HR function, line managers, and the wider organization. On one level, the use of technology has been shown to lead to faster, more accurate and more efficient processes, and reduced HR costs. Technology can also be used to provide HR information and to enable managers and employees to perform simple HR tasks themselves. On another level, the use of HRIS to reduce the administrative and transactional burden on the HR function can lead to a change in the structure of HR and allow the function to play a more strategic role in the organization. The reasons behind an organization’s introduction of an HRIS may vary considerably from the need to facilitate efficient processes or cut costs, to improve communication and customer service, or the desire to create a shift in the role of the HR function from one that is mainly administrative to one that is more strategic. This chapter will discuss the potential impacts of technology on HRM in terms of the possible rationale behind the introduction of an HRIS. The chapter will draw on the past literature on HRIS as well as on case study research conducted by the author in conjunction with the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (Parry, Tyson, Selbie, & Leighton, 2006) to examine the possible components of a business case for HRIS and the benefits that such systems can potentially offer to an organization.

Abstract:

In a modern enterprise environment, many information resources are available to people working to produce valuable output. Due to technology proliferation, remote work access, and multiple geographical locations generating their own solutions for local infrastructure challenges, as well as the fact that modern professionals are tasked to make decisions autonomously, it is not self-evident what types of information resources could or should be accessed in what order in order to move processes towards the desired product outcome. Our integrated model was developed using the results of an empirical study. The model puts a user-centered focus on business process model building by mapping all information interactions surrounding the business processes (i.e. creation, storage, management, retrieval of documents/ contents as well as information and data). The model characterizes the business processes by types of information interaction, analyzes process phases by those interactions and evaluates actual locations of information content extractions.

Abstract:

Product platform and product family strategies place tremendous demands on the efficient capture, storage, and retrieval of information in the form of product data. The user’s adoption of an information management system for product families and mass customization is critical for allowing the system to perform as it ought. The following is a case study at a major modular playground equipment producer undergoing the implementation of a new graphical-based configurator for managing its mass customized products. The case study examines the proliferation of software packages to perform configurati

Abstract:

Metocean data are critical through the oil and gas development life cycle. However, the approach taken to acquisition of metocean data (whether modelled or measured), and its subsequent storage and distribution, is often not properly addressed to consider requirements beyond individual components of the life cycle. Additionally a disconnected approach to data-driven projects lacks the benefits afforded through an integrated system that can lead to both operational and financial inefficiencies. The proper consideration of metocean data is briefly discussed in this paper. However the focus of th

Abstract During the declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO), the work of plug & abandonment of 15 deepwater subsea wells were ongoing in Field "C". Discovered in 2001, the field is located approximately 80 km west of coastline and about 90 km from Nouakchott, capital of Mauritania, situated in West Africa. Field "C" is a deepwater field in water depth ranging from 730m to 830m. The field was developed using subsea wells, Hinged Over Subsea Templates (HOST), manifolds, flexible flowlines, umbilicals and risers tied back to a permanently moored FPSO. T
